Beside raising awareness for a good cause, watching that video is a nice reminder that Craig can be quite charming and has a decent sense of comedic timing when he puts his mind to it

Great point! Craig doesn't have huge range as an actor but IMHO he is far more talented than his detractors claim. Part of it is how he has chosen to play Bond as dour and dry (as opposed to Brosnan's high spirits). The Craig films have been the most forthright in the series that "murder" is Bond's "employment." He identifies himself as an assassin not a spy. So I think his choice to play the role with more coldness is defensible.
Great to see Craig continuing to promote this very worthy cause. Anyone who has seen Logan Luck would have to agree that Craig is quite a good comedic actor (he's far and away the best thing in the film, which IMO deserved a much better reception at the box office).

Always great to see Craig getting the message out for the different causes that he supports. @HowardB, I agree it was fun seeing him Logan Lucky. If it was another actor playing Joe Bang, I likely would have passed on seeing it. I really wish that the movie had done better at the box office myself. Sadly went it comes to comedy today, all people want is sexual innuendo, jokes about drugs and toilet humor.
Logan Lucky IMO, was a well written and acted clever heist comedy with a very good cast and a great comedic turn from Craig.
I think Logan Lucky and Defiance (honorable mention to Flashbacks of a Fool) are far and away the best non-Bond films that Craig has done since becoming Bond.

Very funny and a great cause.

I haven't received that email - so i'll have to assume I won!
I also entered the SPECTRE Premiere one and the Daniel Craig Aston Martin one, but no luck.
Will keep entering as it's a great cause, but chances of winning are less than slim.
